Experimental Study of the Plastic Zone at the Front of a Mode I Crack

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

The distribution of stress intensity at the front of a mode I crack in an elastic-plastic body is analyzed. From this distribution, the shape of the plastic zone is identified and its dimensions in two mutually orthogonal directions are established.
